This time, the bubble encloses a brain with eye stalks revealing a very alien creature (with white gloved hands for some reason :-) and a mouth in his body.

I designed everything, and modeled all but the brain. For the brain (which I will likely model myself later) was downloaded from Thingiverse, and was uploaded from MRI data by Thingiverse user hyla.

Here are more angles.

And here is the new version (front) with yesterday’s prototype. The new one has a lowered center of gravity for better werbling.

And yesterday I printed a green and gold version:

And a movie of all three:

As with my UFO set, this is designed to be expandable into all sorts of cute creatures.
